MDOT spokesman John Richard said the M-6 project is scheduled to start the first or second week of July.

Northbound US-131 will have several projects north of Grand Rapids. From March until August, 3.5 miles of the highway will be reconstructed from M-46 north to the Montcalm-Mecosta county line. In September, US-131 will have 4.2 miles resurfaced from the Kent-Montcalm county line north to Cannonsville Road.

From April through November, MDOT will reconstruct 3.6 miles from 14 Mile Road to White Creek Avenue. Drivers who take that stretch of road can expect lane closures as well as a traffic shift.

Drivers will also notice lighting upgrades along US-131 from 28th Street to the I-96 interchange from June through September. Lanes will be closed only during non-peak driving hours during that project.
